In The Good Ole Summertime

It's Monday so how about a catch up post? That's pretty much been my summer blog theme, and hey! it's still summer so there ya go. Daughter2 will greet a new classroom full of students today, but it's the middle of August on the lake and we've got the humidity to prove it.

My sister and her hubs were in town all last week along with my twelve year old nephew and his best bud. They got a kick out of prepping the pork butt for the grill.

The weather was perfection every single day which was a good thing because these boys lived in the water.

We tubed (and by we I mean they), we taught them to water ski (and by we I mean hubsand the brother-in-law taught them to ski)-

Also the skier pictured here is hubs. They might have taught the boys to ski, but they're not looking like this just yet-ha!

We hung out on one of the island beaches, took a sunset cruise, and motored all over the lake while the boys each had a turn at the wheel.

We played tag at the waterfall...

There were a few boats at the falls, but nothing like you see on a hot June or July weekend. Weekdays are where it's at.

Also it was hubs and the boys who played tag. My sister and I chillaxed on the boat.

It was fun to have a whole week to swim and boat after being away from it for three weeks. This is the last of our summertime company, but not the last of our summertime fun. Lots still on the calendar which is how we roll here on This Side Of The Pond. Enjoy your Monday everyone!

Looks like there were some fun moments during their visit! So excited for our visit next month. Maybe we can visit one of your little beaches with Tommy! He is just going to love swimming there this time!

Nothing like a couple of boys to keep everyone moving! ha. Looks like a great time. We were looking forward to Hawaii to get out of this smoke filled, unusually hot summer but ... hopefully we'll get out Sunday. Probably to rain but still.
